Cornell researchers have found that a new DNA sequencing technology can be used to study how transposons move within and bind ...

Biochemists have developed a new strategy for controlling the biological functions of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) by means of light and therefore provide a tool to investigate processes which take ...

A previously unknown type of DNA damage in the mitochondria, the tiny power plants inside our cells, could shed light on how ...

DNA is the most fundamental building block of life on earth. All genetic information organisms need to function, grow, and reproduce are stored inside of their DNA. Biochemists from the University of ...

Over the past decades, a growing number of robotics teams have started developing modular robots inspired by the ancient ...

They proposed viewing each junction as a component that could be modified with “locks, time delaying units, signaling units, ...

In most cases, this manifested as reduced DNA methylation activity. As this process plays a key role in a number of ...

Methionine is an amino acid that is used to build molecules important for cell and DNA function. Meat, eggs, fish, and other foods containing protein will have some methionine in them. Amino acids ...
